Making calls via Zapier [Action]

Learn how initiate calls with Convolo trigger on Zapier

Updated over a week ago

The Speed-to-Lead™ app will let you initiate a call with Convolo when the trigger works.

What do you need to start using the app:

  • Zapier account

  • Convolo Speed To Lead account

How to set up ?

1. Create a Zap: The first step is to create a new Zap in Zapier. A Zap is a workflow that connects two or more apps together. In this case, you will connect your lead source app with your Convolo Leads widget.

2. Choose Trigger: After creating a Zap, you need to choose a trigger. A trigger is an event that starts the workflow. In this case, the trigger will be a new lead added to your lead source app.

3. Search for and select "Convolo.ai" as the action.
